What is the network name needed to connect to a wireless access point?

• Basic Service Address (BSA)
• MAC address
• Service Set Identifier (SSID)
• Extended Service Set (ESS) 

EXPLANATION

SSID is short for service set identifier. In layman's terms, an SSID is the name for a Wi-Fi network.
People typically encounter an SSID most often when they are using a mobile device to connect to a wireless network. For example, if you take your laptop to the coffee shop and attempt to connect to the local Wi-Fi network, your screen will display a list of SSIDs — this is the names of all the networks that are within range of your mobile device. You'll select the name of the local network you want to connect to and then enter the password (if necessary) to connect.
Note that some public networks, typically managed by a business, may require you to first read and agree to an online terms of service (ToS) before allowing you to connect.
